There were multiple characters in the first game that definitely felt like they wanted to avoid just showing kids hitting each other so they used a weird character for representation (Hugh Neutron instead of Jimmy, Nigel Thornberry instead of Eliza, Reptar instead of any of the Rugrats), though it’s not like there…

To each their own but I’ve never found Taco Bell’s sauce offerings to be all that impressive. If you’re at the restaurant and have nothing else, sure, but if I’m at home I’d rather just use Cholula.

Mouse pads may not be necessary to use the mouse anymore, but I recommend that anyone who regularly uses a mouse in the same location use a mouse pad (or desk pad or something else) if for no other reason than to prevent damage to the desk surface. That usage (moving the mouse and scraping the bottom and any dirt…

Would be curious to see if the rankings hold for crunchy peanut butter

I started my current job in January 2020 and within a few months we had transitioned from fully in-office to fully remote. Eventually, I wanted to move outside of a reasonable commute distance and requested a flexible work arrangement, so that even if the bulk WFH ended, I’d still be allowed to work from home. Seems…

This is more about phishing and scams than spam, so presumably not.

I mean the specific device as “leaked” and shown in the article. We know what Project Q is but we don’t know if the photos represent a final version of it or not.

I’m aware of the limitations, but the appeal is still there.

Outside of an accident or illness or something, T’Pol would almost certainly be still alive - the episode “E²” depicts a T’Pol who, due to time travel, is around the age she would be in Strange New Worlds. And we know that T’Pau (who I think T’Pol was originally going to be) appeared in both Enterprise and TOS, so she…

Possibly, I feel like a lot of the people who would use something like this either a) have been waiting for a more convenient system than a controller that snaps onto their phone or b) simply didn’t know about the existing options but possibly will when Sony themselves makes it.

Oh absolutely, the price point will almost certainly be this thing’s downfall. But I don’t think that really affects *who* it’s for, there’s definitely a market of people who want to play PS games without the tv.

So? If anything, Remote Play just proves that it’s a feature that people want and so this is a device specifically designed for that so that people don’t have to use their existing phones. At the right price point, I’d 100% rather use something like this instead of my phone (though I admit that it almost certainly…

People who want to play PlayStation games without staring at a television. Like, while someone else is using the tv or while they’re in bed (or in the bathroom) or wherever else. And depending on the quality of its internet connection, maybe during a commute or on vacation. Many of the same people who use a Switch in…

To be fair, we don’t know what stage of development this is in or for what purposes this specific one was created for. Like, remember that the team making Mario & Luigi Partners in Time for the then-unreleased DS had to make their own DS out of two GBAs and an SNES controller and that’s not at all what the finished…

Yeah, I get that for historical reasons, Archer would be the most-mentioned one, but every member of that crew would be a legend in their own right. Great to hear more shout-outs.

Sure, but “notable to one person” was never the requirement for Wikipedia. I’m sure a lot of people will have fond Barbenheimer memories for a long time.

Great episode, the moment where Christine realized that her relationship with Spock doesn’t even make it to a historical footnote was genuinely touching. “History needs him to be the exact opposite of what you need him to be in a relationship” is hard to hear.

Yeah, TAS is literally the only Star Trek I haven’t seen at this point - I keep up with all the new shows and have taken the time over the years/decades to watch everything else. So to me it’s kind of a “if I’m going to do this, why not now?” situation.

The industry isn’t niche, but the cultural impact of gaming still isn’t nearly where movies are. Not as many people care as much about games as they do about movies. “Niche” may not be the right word, but you ask the average person for their top 5 favorite movies vs their top 5 favorite games and you’ll get a lot more…

I think it makes sense for Wikipedia to have notability standards (maybe this specific one, maybe not) not because of a limit on space but to ensure that the “right” things get focus and are easy to find. If the “Barbie” article included, for example, every internet meme, television joke, and other cultural reference…
